[AT] Diesel Starting Safety Reminder

[DAVIESW739 at aol.com]

In Oregon you have to bee 14 to drive a tractor and have a license, the thing 
I don't understand is how do they pass the test if they can't drive before 
they get the license.

I think my Kubota will start just by rolling down hill I think I will try it 
next time I use it or have nothing else to do. There is no way to keep it from 
starting as the shut off is on the throttle lever and resets back to idle 
when released. I bet OSHA never found this little thing so maybe we ought keep 
shut about it or we may have add more safety junk to the tractor. Darn I hate 
those headache bars. I wonder what they use in the orchards with lower trees and 
higher ROPS kits they must loose a lot of limbs (tree type).
